+ (description "herbstluftwm is a manual tiling window manager for X11 using
+Xlib and GLib. Its main features are:
+
+@itemize
+@item
+The layout is based on splitting frames into subframes which can be split
+again or can be filled with windows (similar to i3 or musca).
+
+@item
+Tags (or workspaces or virtual desktops or …) can be added/removed at runtime.
+Each tag contains an own layout.
+
+@item
+Exactly one tag is viewed on each monitor. The tags are monitor independent
+(similar to Xmonad).
+
+@item
+It is configured at runtime via IPC calls from @command{herbstclient}. So the
+configuration file is just a script which is run on startup (similar to wmii
+or musca).
